The world is changing. Help change it for the better.
This summer, learn from inspiring people and places.
At Operation Groundswell, students are given the tools to create meaningful change in the communities you call home. The program will connect you with inspiring local farmers, artists, educators, and activists who are making incredible change in their communities.
Led by two experienced leaders,their small teams dive straight into life on the ground through immersive homestays and meaningful volunteer work. Local change-makers lead us in improving their communities – sharing their stories along the way.
Operation Groundswell has grants available for students that make their summer programs accessible. 95% of students receive financial assistance grants, which can cover up to 25% of your program fee. More information about the grant is available on the Operation Groundswell website.
Programs are filling up quickly, so apply as soon as possible. The deadline for summer program applications is March 1!
